Tips for Thermostat Location
When replacing an existing thermostat, place your new
Clear Comfort™ thermostat in the same location as the old one, unless
the conditions below suggest otherwise. For a new installation, follow
these guidelines for placement:
• Place the thermostat in a room or hallway that is used oen; position on
an inside wall about 5 . (1.52 m) from the floor.
• Avoid installing the thermostat in unusually heated areas (e.g., near a
television, lamp, radiator, or fireplace), in direct sunlight, or on a wall
that has hot water pipes or that is opposite a stove.
• Avoid installing the thermostat in unusually chilled areas, such as in
a dray area (e.g., stairwell, door, or window), on a wall separating an
unheated room, or where air circulation is poor (e.g., in a corner or
behind a door).
• Avoid installing the thermostat in unusually damp areas as this can lead
to corrosion.
• DO NOT install the thermostat until construction work is complete, dust
free, and painting has been completed.
• If the thermostat housing is cold, wait for it to reach room temperature
before installing.
Removing the Old Thermostat from the Wall
WARNING: Switch off electricity to both the heating (furnace) and cooling
(air conditioner) equipment before proceeding with the following steps:
1. Remove the front cover from the old thermostat.
2. Before removing wires from the old thermostat terminals, take note
of the leers printed near each of the wire terminals.
3. Aach a wiring label (included) to its corresponding wire,
so as to identify the wires’ leer; not the wire color.
4. Aer labeling the wires, remove them from the old thermostat
terminals (usually by releasing clamps or undoing terminal screws
5. Remove the old base from the wall (usually by removing screws).
